Brushes from Amazon
I ordered these brushes from Amazon because I was looking for some different brushes to play around with and I knew that you could get some inexpensive ones from China.... I wanted a contour brush and I found these two above, when they arrived I was truely amazed at the quality of both of them and one of them (the black one) it had Nars written on it lol. Im within no doubt that this is not a Nars origanal but still its a great brush, very soft and fluffy and it does the job. The other brush is a lot more dence but again does the job perfectly and thet were so cheap the black brush was £3.88 and the other one was about 89p both with free p&p
Now this brush I had seen on a few youtubers channels and wanted it ASAP I found these ones and they were only £1.28 again with free p&p. I must admit that when it arrived it was a lot smaller than what I thought it was going to be but it was so soft and dense and it deffinatly did the job I love it so much I have ordered a bigger one and cant wait for it to arrive, watch this space xxxxxxx
Makeup Revolution Stripped and Bare Pallette
Hi guys this is a pallette I have recently bought from a superdrug store a bit further from where I live and I have been using it everyday since I got it home. Its a bit different from their other pallettes in the way that it is laid out as you can see in the above picture. It has an air of a certain Kat von de pallette. It has three different sections that are all designed to go together. I have mainly been using the middle section the pink in this section is amazing, its shimmery and very pigmented it is a beautlfull lid colour and the other shades just compliment each other.
Here is a closer picture of the amazing colours I would deffinatly recomend this pallette and will give it a huge 8 out of 10 x x x
New Loreal sculpt foundation
Hi peeps I have been testing out this Loreal Sculpt foundation for about 2 weeks now and I must say I really like it, not that I'm totally sure what it acctually is lol. Is it a primer ?? Is is a foundation ?? is it a highliter ?? I really dont know but what I can tell you is it looks lovely on the skin. I first applied it with my fingers and then the next day I applied it with a brush I must addmit that the brush gave a shearer coverage but it still looked nice, slightly dewy but not oily looking. I have worn it under foundation and I have also worn it alone and I found that wearing it alone worked out better for me personally and I have oily/combination skin. When I wore it under a foundation it felt like I had cake face and looked quite heavy. I think it would be amazing for people with a dryer skin type but on my skin worn alone and powdered it did look good, I would give it a 7 out of 10. It only comes in two shades so this is what makes me think its more of a under foundation product but its also a cool consept. Would deffinatly recomend. Please let me know in the comments if you have tried this and what you think of it x x

Seventeen form Boots new Primers
Floorless Poreless Primer
The first of the Primers I'm going to talk about is the Flawless Poreless Primer which is the round compact in the picture above. This is a solid primer in pan form and it is silicone based. Its clear and is very smoothing when applied to your face. It did help to conceal my very large pores but didn't banish them completely :-(
I haven't yet found a primer that totally conceals my pores but they are quite large, it did however help alot with my fine lines under my eyes which is fab ...... you don't need alot so I think this would last a long time.
Stay Time long wear Primer
This primer is quite different to any other primer I have tried before, Its the one in the tube pictured above. It says on the description that it is like a glue for your make up.......well it is true, When you first apply this primer to your face it feels just like that, In fact it feels really strange on the skin for the first minute or so. Then it just feels nice and smooth and ready for your makeup, I have tested this several times, in hot weather, cold weather and just general day to day wear and its fantastic at doing exactly what it says it does.....keeping that makeup on your face lol I'm very impressed with this primer and will defiantly re purchase once this has run out. VERY IMPRESSED
Beauty UK Lip crayons
These are the new Posh Pouts from Beauty UK, they are very simalar to what most makeup companies are bringing out now ever since Revlon launched their Kissable balm Stains way back last year. These dont claim to stain the lips which is good as they dont, but they are very nice all the same. They are very pigmented and very moiturising on the lips but they dont last very long so you do have to keep reapliying I think they are around £3 each which is quite a good price point and they would be great for someone starting out with makeup !! I have had them for quite a while and I do use them often, but they are not what I reach for If I want a long lasting lippy. All in all I think they are fab as a lot of the Beauty UK items do x x x
